Pet care experience
I've had dogs most of my life and loved dogs my entire life. My last dog passed away last year and I'm not ready for my next but I sure do miss having dogs in my house, so let me shower yours with love and attention while you're away. I live in a house with a fully fenced yard in a lovely walkable neighborhood with walking trails all around me. I had a cockapoo, boxer/ridgeback mix and most recently 2 dachshunds. I also am a regular foster and have hosted everything from poodles to pitties at my house. I do have a soft spot for the seniors as my last doxie had back issues at 15y/o and needed lots of extra help so I understand that stage of life and am so awed by their sweet and stoic nature as they age. I'm working from home these days so I'm home a LOT! I understand all dogs are unique and would love to chat with you about whether my house and I are a good fit for your pup(s).
Reviews
I met Michelle's dogs before I met Michelle, when they would all come visit my retail store. Michelle and I bonded over our love for all things canine, and I am so happy to have found someone who really cares and loves animals as much as I do. She spends her free time volunteering and fostering for our local shelter, always loving the dogs who need it the most. She is responsible and smart, and always knows the best way to calm or protect a dog in any situation. Taking care of dogs isn't a chore or a task for Michelle, it is a joy and a way of life. She's the best human a dog could ask for.

My backyard is fully fenced with a big grassy lawn so your dog can play safely outside and take quick potty breaks between walks. I generally walk dogs 2x per day unless we do a big long trail walk (about 1 hour/ 3.5 miles if your dog is up for that) in which case our second walk will be a shorter neighborhood walk. We can adapt to any feeding sked as needed. We don't have dogs sleep in bed with us but happy to have them sleep in the bedroom with us in a bed or a crate as needed. Always best to talk through your dogs routine and special needs.

I am working from home now and able to walk, feed and play with your pups throughout the day and when I'm home on weekends I love to be outdoors walking or in my backyard and my dogs tended to be a part of all I did on the weekends! I do travel on occasion to see family but I keep my calendar up to date as much as possible so you can look ahead for bookings.
